Sorry, GOP, Donald Trump Is Your Monster--It's Time To Own HimThe GOP gets no sympathy from us.
SHANNON ARGUETA 15 HOURS AGO
On June 16, 2015, Donald Trump announced to the world that he was running for president of the United States and in the same speech called Mexicans rapists and criminals. When the day was over, the Republican base was cheering for their new leader. Now, with just four weeks left until the election the same people who once cheered are trying to distance themselves from the nominee. Unfortunately for them, it doesn't work like that.
Donald Trump did not occur in a vacuum. He is the result of their failure to govern. He is the result of their divisive rhetoric. He is the result of their Southern Strategy. He is the result of their continued scorched earth attacks on President Obama. He is the result of their welfare queen myth. He is the result of their LGBT hate. He is the result of their bigotry. He is the result of their war on women. No amount of endorsement pulling and distancing themselves from him is going to save their party; the damage is done.
Donald Trump is the GOP's just deserts. Now grab a spoon and eat up, assholes.

And we should never ever let the stinkin rotten to the core republican party forget it!
Trump shored up his hater republican base last night. He brought zero new voters to his side, which he and his party so desperately need to actually win the election.
But in their paranoid, hate filled little world, all is well!
